got different grade of the wire inside.....some china made wire are so lousy (most use recycled material-mix material). ask ur electrical technician....there should no about this...

Yes please use reputable manufacturer. Some contractor do use disputable quality cables.

Cables are not specified by copper wire "grade" for common LV usage. Common specification is by insulation & cable size.

Copper grade are specified when buying copper tapes in earthing system (99.99% oxygen free annealed copper)

BTW, to any layman, it is not possible to see the "quality/grade" of wire of the cable by naked eyes by visual inspection. copper looks copper. What is important is the sizing is sufficient amperage and insulation is not damaged. common rule of thumb = 1.5mm2 for lighting & 2.5mm2 for power (13A) & 4mm2 for aircond.

If any owner really want to check the workmanship of the wiring, carry out megger test/insulation test

No it's not a lot

Maximum number of tiles 1X1 need to hack is 3 . They pull the wiring from the exhaust fan through the other side of the wall of the toilet and then go down and go back in to the toilet.

Tiles is provided by myself the only amount of work needed is around one lighting point cost + cost of hacking and laying 3 (1X1) tiles which is around 50 -70 ringgit. But the contractor quote me RM550 for it so it's like 10X higher than market price.

just get qoute for my house painting, 2900 psft built up area semi-d.
i ask for 3 contractor, finally decided pass to one of them that quote me rm4k. re-paint the whole int, and do touch up for ext since some part of ext become dirty after reno.

4k i assume not include paint?
I got quoted 3.8k for 3 storeys, no exterior but staircase rail+ all doors and staircase's step

ask them do you have a choice to choose let say Nippon paint and not any other 'less known' brand?

I was going to have an Island..but I will put a induction cooker in the island for cooking small stuff -like tacos..or even steamboat..there will be some high chairs for family to cook, eat,sit and chat...my Island will be not be in the middle..more like between dining area and kitchen..sort of like a breakfast bar...I think..

good idea too!!
